Description
A thermogram of an ingrown toenail that is infected, compared to the left and normal foot. This type of image that shows increased heat due to increased blood circulation is important for medical diagnostics. The temperature range goes from hot (white) to cold (blue). Thermography is a technique for visualizing the temperature of surfaces by recording the emission of long-wavelength infrared radiation. This heat radiation is detected electronically and displayed with different colors representing different temperatures.
